Nicole's question made Alex ponder over human nature as he stood right beside her and stared at her.
This woman in front was by no ans weak. She was just a little shocked with the sudden discovery of having cancer. This probably happened because it might be the first ti she had suffered from so major health problems.
Wondering whether his analysis was true, Alex asked calmly, "Miss Nicole, have you had any prior dical complications as major as this one?"
Nicole shook her head.
"Any broken bones, fractures, anything that involved operating on yourself?"
Nicole shook her head again. "I was a strong kid since young. I jumped around from tall trees, skid down a hill on my stomach with head facing down, played football, and even completed the harsh training for the Feds. Never got anything more than scratches and bruises."
"I understand," nodded Alex. This explained everything.
Nicole's immune system was strong and she was smart enough to not break her bones. She also seed to eat healthy food given how her complexion was of a healthy shade along with her glowing smooth skin.
No acne on face or anywhere on the body, at least what Alex had seen so far, along with no dark circles or baggy eyes.
In all ways, Nicole was really healthy. It's no wonder she was so anxious and panicking right now.
Alex wanted to go ho and have a chat with his wife on a few things, but it was a pity he couldn't.
If he left Nicole alone now, his connection with her would worsen due to her becoming paranoid as well as extrely anxious and scared.
It was best to stay with her until her reports arrived.
"Can I make a call before I answer you?" Alex asked.
Nicole nodded and gave her phone to Alex.
Looking at her phone, Alex asked with a smile, "if I call my family from this phone, won't you get all the information on ?"
A smile crept on Nicole's face. It was after a really long ti and Alex was glad he saw it.
Nicole replied, "Doctor, privacy is a myth, unless you're a very high ranking Blessed."
Alex was surprised. "You're saying if I am a high ranking Blessed, I can get away with anything?"
Nicole nodded. "Pretty much. Unless you did so major fuckup and got the Association of Blesseds after you."
Alex chuckled. "Sounds like I'd need to beco a Blessed then. Otherwise officers like you could always stalk ."
Nicole smiled and patted Alex's shoulder. "Good luck with that. It's never happening unless your luck is really good and you get noticed by so God."
Alex smiled and shook his head.
He gave a call to lissa and talked to her for a bit, telling her that he was stuck with a patient and couldn't make it ho tonight.
lissa wasn't too nosy and asked him to take care of himself. She also asked if he had eaten or not and if he needed food.
The general questions ca after she checked his well being. Questions about why soone called Carl answered his phone instead of him, why he was calling with soone else's phone, and so on.
Nicole was here and Alex couldn't say the truth, otherwise he would land in trouble.
He said to lissa what he said to Nicole and then said he'll talk more on this once he was ho.
Alex's story was obviously highly suspicious but lissa didn't give him a hard ti since she already had a general idea about things.
She once again asked him to take care and cut the call after saying 'love you' and hearing it back from Alex.
"A lady?" Nicole asked with a smile.
Alex nodded. "My wife. I am married, Miss Nicole."
Surprise was clearly written all over Nicole's face. "You, you're married? At such a young age?"
"Is that a problem, Miss—"
"Please, just call Nicole," Nicole was starting to open up to Alex and getting on much friendlier terms.
Alex nodded. "You can call Alex instead of doctor."
Nicole chuckled. "The na Dr. Alexander Gray sounds cool though."
"It does?" Alex didn't know.
"Yes. Though since you asked now, I'll just call you Alex. There's no going back." Nicole was in a slightly better mood now.
Alex walked towards her car and said, "let's go grab so food. It's been a long day."
"Sure. Dinner's on ." Nicole hopped her way towards the car and said.
Alex turned to look at her and gave her a fake annoyed look. "Obviously. You're making work on my days off, I need so compensation."
Nicole laughed. "Right, right. So wrong of to not offer you even a coffee."
The two got into the car.
Nicole then continued, "though, shouldn't it be I getting treated by you since I am the patient?"
"Nope. I am not your friend or your family, I am your doctor. I do not care about anything other than wanting you to be healthy." Alex gave it to her bluntly.
Nicole liked what she heard. "Too bad you're married, otherwise I would've married you and made you my family. Better yet, my sister, the sa age as you, could've married you."
Alex smiled in response and didn't comnt on it. He started the car and the two went to a Japanese restaurant to have a warm and hearty al.
Alex ordered a pork ran bowl and Nicole opted for a chicken one since she felt her stomach wouldn't be able to digest pork or beef at.
There was a side of miso and shrimp tempura. Then they ordered sushi, followed by a cheesecake as a dessert.
The two then went back to the hospital and sat in the reception, waiting for Nicole's reports until morning.
Alex was a doctor and he had the privilege to be at this hospital for the night.
The nurses were kind too and they arranged for food and drinks for Alex and Nicole.
Nicole was grateful for Alex's company and the two slept the night sitting on the chairs in the waiting room of the hospital.
Next morning.
"Miss Nicole, your reports are ready."
